EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of chemistry. Taken at the 57th meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science in 1887, it showcases a group of distinguished chemists from the 19th century. Standing proudly at the forefront are three remarkable individuals who have left an indelible mark on scientific progress. To the left stands Nikolai Mishutkin, representing St. Petersburg University with his esteemed presence. In the center is none other than Dmitri Mendeleyev himself, renowned as the brilliant mind behind inventing the periodic table of elements. His groundbreaking work has revolutionized our understanding of matter and laid a solid foundation for future scientific discoveries. On Mendeleyev's right stands Sir Henry Roscoe, an English chemist whose contributions to this field are equally noteworthy. Together, these three luminaries embody dedication and innovation that have propelled chemistry into new realms. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this photograph, transporting us back to an era where scientific meetings were pivotal moments for knowledge exchange and collaboration among great minds. Thanks to Science Photo Library's preservation efforts, we can now appreciate this historical snapshot that encapsulates not only a gathering of brilliant scientists but also signifies humanity's relentless pursuit of unraveling nature's mysteries through science and exploration.
